There's related work going on in ironic - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/224022/ <https://review.openstack.org/#/c/224022/>- it proposes a way by which a user may query the transitions (actions) of the underlying FSM: "Get me all the valid actions/transitions". Other comments on the review. Also: I like using the same word for things. Is there a meaningful enough difference between "Actions", "Transitions", and "Tasks", that requires different words?
